A man from Humble, Texas was sentenced to 45 years in prison for fatally shooting a mother in front of her son during a dispute at an apartment complex, Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg announced Tuesday.

“Another family shattered by violence, another life taken by someone using a gun to settle an argument,” Ogg said.

Jarvis Lamar Campbell, 29, was convicted by the jury and sentenced Monday by a judge for murdering Shaneika Sibley.

On December 20, 2017, Campbell was at his apartment at 625 Wilson Rd. in Humble, when Sibley, her 12-year-old son, and Sibley’s boyfriend arrived to confront Campbell about taking the boy’s sneakers. Campbell gave the property back, and as the group was leaving, Campbell threatened the boy’s life.

Sibley then got out of her car and confronted Campbell. Campbell pulled out a pistol and shot her in the face.

Campbell then ran after Sibley’s boyfriend and shot at the boyfriend as he pled for his life. Sibley’s son was not injured.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorneys Jennifer Lawrence and Danielle Oxford and investigated by the Humble Police Department.

“Ms. Sibley’s family waited patiently for justice.” Lawrence said “Yesterday, Campbell was held responsible for murdering a loving mother and friend.”
